I live in Ketchikan, Alaska where we get 150 inches of rain per year on average. Really. Google it. When I saw the Saturday Six Word Story prompt was "Rain," I knew I had the perfect story-telling picture in my phone. Recesses are rainy here, and the kids don't let that stop them.
Photos and Challenges
Nosy and a little Naughty
I am enjoying these picture prompts!! I wanted to take a selfie with my darling grandson, but my efficacy was dashed when a naughty puppy interrupted the conversation with a cold wet nose!

I have dahlias, I will give it a try. So here you are, a lovely bunchy, bushy, trailing dahlia that draws bees and … Continue reading Darling Dahlia

The prompt is "Highway" and my thought went S T R A I G H T to this song. 1979. I am a senior in high school. My best friends older brother works at a music store. He has his cassette tapes in a locked case. We pick the lock and rock out to AC/DC's … Continue reading Highway
